Evil Ex Empties Kettle Of Boiling Water Over Girlfriend After She Dumps Him

Evil Ex Empties Kettle Of Boiling Water Over Girlfriend After She Dumps Him

Mother-of-two Suzanne Thomas was left with horrific injuries after her thug ex-boyfriend emptied a full kettle of boiling water over her body after she dumped him.

Suzanne was left in agony and with 27 per cent burns all over her body including her stomach, arms, legs and crotch after she was viciously attacked by Jason McLean.

She has now released the horrific pictures for the first time.

Police have described the attack as one of the worst domestic violence cases they have ever seen.

Before callously pouring the scalding water over Suzanne, McLean had broken into her house, threatened her with a knife and stamped on her head.

As Suzanne, 33, lay screaming in agony McLean went to boil the water a second time but  stopped when he heard police sirens. 

Incredibly, after the attack McLean went on the run and managed to break into Suzanne’s hospital room and warned her: “You haven’t seen anything yet - if you think this is bad see what comes next.“ 

But he was arrested before he could inflict any more damage and is now serving a 14-year sentence at Nottingham Crown Court for causing grievous bodily harm with intent. 

Suzanne, a mum to two girls, still receives treatment for the third-degree burns. 

She said: "It was absolutely the worst pain I have ever been in. 

"It felt like someone was ripping sheets of skin off me - but slowly. 

"He was in a complete rage - staring straight through me. He was in a total and blind rage. 

"At first I was angry, and then after seeing him smirking in court all I wanted was to see him get a good sentence - and I think he did. 

"What Jason did to me that night has completely changed my life - I can’t even face having a bath as a fear of water still haunts me. 

"I couldn’t do that to my worst enemy.” 

The couple had met in a nightclub in March 2013 and within six months McLean had moved into her Nottingham home. 

But he become controlling and jealous and Suzanne threw him out after just a few weeks. 

Then, one night after going out with friends, she returned home with a friend to find her living room window open and McLean inside with a knife. 

That was when he attacked.

“I was trying to calm him down, but he just wasn’t hearing it,” said Suzanne.

"He started kicking me and I fell to the ground and he carried on with the kicking, and stamping on my head. 

"That’s when I don’t know if I passed out briefly because when I went to sit up he was holding a kettle above me. 

"He poured that directly on my lap, all down my legs and my stomach. 

"I was screaming. He said ‘do you want another one?’ and he went back to the kitchen, but that’s when the police came. 

"I went straight into shock and then it felt freezing cold. The pain was horrific.” 

Suzanne was rushed to hospital where she spent three weeks wrapped chest to toe in bandages and on a cocktail of painkillers. 

Doctors said had if McLean had poured another kettle of water over her the extra burns would probably have killed her. 

McLean fled after the attack but eventually handed himself into police.

Detective Inspector Peter Queen said: “This is one of the most horrific cases of domestic violence I have seen and the injuries to Suzanne will leave scars for the rest of her life. 

Suzanne has since moved  from Nottingham where she is trying to start a new life with her two school-aged daughters. 

She still has to apply cream daily, take regular painkillers and can’t go in chlorinated water or into the sun without extremely high-factor sun cream.

What Erin Andrews' Testimony Means for Her $75 Million LawsuitWhat Erin Andrews' Testimony Means for Her $75 Million Lawsuit

What Erin Andrews' Testimony Means for Her $75 Million LawsuitWhat Erin Andrews' Testimony Means for Her $75 Million Lawsuit

The defense has taken over in Erin Andrews' civil suit, but the sportscaster’s testimony has had a significant impact on the course of the case, legal experts say.

During two days of testimony, Andrews, 37, detailed how the release of a secretly recorded video showing her naked has impacted her life. Andrews testified as part of a $75 million lawsuit against the operator of the Nashville Marriott at Vanderbilt University, where Michael David Barrett altered the peephole to her hotel room and recorded a video of her that he subsequently released online in 2009.

She is also suing Barrett, who was previously convicted of stalking her and sentenced to two and a half years in prison.

"She has to prove to the jury that she's suffering from severe and permanent emotional distress and so she has to explain to this jury that this has had an extreme effect upon her, and I think she is exhibiting that on the witness stand,” ABC News legal analyst Sunny Hostin said on "Good Morning America" today.

Erin Andrews Chokes Up Talking About How Stalker Video Affects Her Relationships

West End Hotel Partners, which owns and operates that Nashville Marriott, has said that Barrett's criminal actions were his responsibility, not theirs.

Now that Andrews’ attorneys have rested their case after calling a string of witnesses, the defense has taken over and has raised questions about how much she was impacted from a financial standpoint.

"No one in that courtroom is suggesting that Erin Andrews isn’t a victim,” ABC News legal analyst Dan Abrams said. “The question is how much is it worth and who should pay it."

Legal experts say the emotional impact has become even more important to show by Andrews’ side, since the defense is trying to prove that there is no noticeable negative financial impact. According to Hostin, it's going to come down to the jury's view of how hurt Andrews was in light of a "post-Kim Kardashian world where you do become famous sometimes because of leaked video tapes."

"I wonder if the jurors will think 'Oh, well, you've become more famous because of this ... how has this really injured you?'" Hostin said.

During her cross examination on Tuesday, the defense addressed all of the endorsements -- from Diet Mountain Dew to Reebok -- that the sideline reporter has signed with since the video was released in 2009.

Abrams said that “as ugly as it may seem,” it is critical for the defense to determine how, if at all, her career has been impacted in order for the jury to decide how much money she should be awarded.

"Most of the damages she’s seeking are emotional damages as opposed to professional damages," Abrams told ABC News.

For her part, Andrews agreed when the defense attorney said Tuesday that her income has “gone up substantially” since the release of the video.

The possible payout for the case is up in the air. According to The Tennessean, an earlier version of a similar lawsuit Andrews filed sought $10 million, but the current iteration has Andrews’ attorneys asking for $75 million.

"What you’re really trying to do as an attorney," Abrams said, "is to provide a jury with some guidance of what you’re suggesting."

Abrams noted that in many but not all “big, big” jury payouts, appellate courts tend to reduce the initial award amount if there isn’t a settlement between the two parties.

Suspect in Hannah Graham Disappearance Tied to 2009 Murder, Police Say

Suspect in Hannah Graham Disappearance Tied to 2009 Murder, Police Say

A forensic connection has been made between the disappearance of University of Virginia student Hannah Graham and the 2009 murder of a student in Charlottesville.

Virginia State police announced today that the suspect who has been arrested in connection to Graham's disappearance has some physical connection to the death of Morgan Harrington. Harrington was a student at Virginia Tech who disappeared after attending a Metallica concert in Charlottesville near the University of Virginia in 2009.

Missing UVA Student Hannah Graham's Case Similar to 2009 Murder, Mom Says

DNA Links Second Abduction to Morgan Harrington

"For the past five years, the Virginia State Police has been aggressively pursuing the investigation into the disappearance and death of 20-year-old Morgan D. Harrington of Roanoke, Va. Last week, the arrest of Jesse L. Matthew Jr., 32, of Charlottesville, Va., provided a significant break in this case with a new forensic link for state police investigators to pursue," Virginia State Police spokeswoman Corinne Geller said in a statement today.

Matthew was arrested in Galveston, Texas, last week and will appear in court on Thursday in Virginia to face the charges of abduction with intent to defile Graham.

If the forensic evidence that connects the two cases holds true, there is likely another victim linked to the suspect. Virginia State Police investigating Harrington's death in 2009 determined that DNA on her body connected the perpetrator to a 2005 sexual assault of a woman in Fairfax, Va.

"We know there's one predator who killed Morgan," the girl's mother, Gil Harrington, told ABC News last week.

In the 2005 incident, a man grabbed a 26-year-old woman from behind, forced her into a wooded area and sexually assaulted her. The alleged assailant fled after being startled.

Earlier this month, Gil Harrington said it was "too speculative" to draw a direct link to Graham's disappearance and her daughter's killer, but she was struck by the "coincidences."

"College town, same town, same kind of look of a girl, same time of year," she said. "Is this a pattern?"

"Hannah was seen for some of the time fairly close to where Morgan’s shirt was found maybe three weeks after her abduction," Harrington said.

Virginia State Police did not reveal any specific details about the nature of the evidence that they found connecting the two cases, but they have asked the public to call in with any information relating to the Harrington case. They also stressed that their main focus remains on locating Graham and bringing her home.

"There is a still a great deal of work to be done in regards to this investigation and we appreciate the public’s patience as we move forward," Geller said in the statement.

Calls to Matthew's attorney were not immediately returned.

Matthew was seen with Graham, 18, shortly after 1 a.m. on Saturday Sept. 13. Police found surveillance footage and witnesses who allegedly saw the pair at a bar together. Police said that Matthew was the last person seen with Graham.

Matthew went to the Charlottesville police a week after Graham disappeared. and then sped off erratically before actually speaking to investigators. Four days later, a sheriff's deputy in Galveston took Matthew into custody after receiving a tip from a woman who spotted him.

He waived his right to fight extradition and was brought back to Virginia on Friday. He was first brought to the Charlottesville Police Department before being taken to the Charlottesville-Albemarle Regional Jail where he is being held until a his bond hearing on Thursday.
